Montana Reduces Property Taxes With $400 Rebates for Residents, Farmers, Small Businesses
Several states and governments are exploring reforms to property and real estate taxation to alleviate homeowner burdens and stabilize markets. Montana has introduced legislation that generally reduces property taxes for residents, agriculture, and small businesses, alongside offering a property tax rebate. South Dakota's Comprehensive Property Tax Task Force is considering shifting from property taxes to sales or transaction taxes to cut homeowner property tax bills by at least 50%, responding to a 64% increase in property taxes from 2017 to 2024. In the housing market, President Donald Trump's administration is considering removing capital gains taxes on home sales to stimulate inventory and buyer demand, despite concerns about potential revenue shortfalls and national deficits. Vietnam's Ministry of Finance proposes a tiered personal income tax on real estate transfers to curb speculation and promote market stability, with higher rates on short-term sales and reduced rates for long-held properties. These varied approaches reflect broader efforts to balance tax revenue, market liquidity, and homeowner affordability amid challenging economic conditions.
